Tian Feng was demoted from a Jizhou and Yuan Shao's henchmen to a county magistrate in a certain border place and Yuan Xi's henchmen, and he was immediately passed out. Everyone thinks that Yuan Shao, as a person with a good face, how could he allow the strategist to leave? Doesn't it seem that he has no room for others? However, at the moment of the Great War, there is indeed room for maneuvering for some things.

The happiest thing is Feng Ji and the others, originally they wanted to speak, but they were always wary of the iron-faced and selfless Tian Feng coming out to refute. Now it's good, they can say whatever they want, and they seem more and more unscrupulous. As Guo Tu, there is something wrong in his heart. Although Tian Feng has always been unable to get along with him, he finally knows that he is a gentleman. However, now when you want to fight with these people in Fengji, they are all villains. It is better to marry a gentleman and be evil, than to be suspicious of villains.

As far as Yuan Tan's camp is concerned, without Tian Feng, they really suffer a lot of losses. When he saw his third brother the next day, his face was a little unpleasant. And Yuan Shang said: "Big brother, I heard that the elite of Qingzhou was defeated on the bank of the Yingshui River?" ”

Yuan Tan's eyebrows trembled, and he smiled faintly: "Where is the elite, it's just a transport team!" I heard that the new army organized by the third brother was completely wiped out. ”

Thinking of the Jizhou heavy armor soldiers who were scattered before they took shape, Yuan Shang's expression was like eating a fly, and he said: "It was originally the Nanpi garrison, and it was just a matter of training and learning." ”

Yuan Tan had a thorn in his heart, and his elite was actually defeated. After Zong Bao and the others came back, they reported the matter. The team of 3,000 people, under the condition of defense, was actually defeated by hundreds of people. This is too mysterious. At first, he thought that the third brother Yuan Shang had sent someone to make trouble in private, but later the intelligence he got showed that it seemed to be a unilateral action by Youzhou.

For this reason, he called Yuan Xi, brought more than a dozen horses, and made an appointment to go hunting in the suburbs together.

The sky was gloomy, the wind was cold, the mountains were all over the field, a gray, at most there were occasional small animals.

Yuan Xi has been a little cold these days, and Zhao Yun has been away for a day, and he always feels unhappy in his heart, and his face is much worse under the entanglement.

He rubbed his nose and asked, "Big brother wants to talk to me, you can do it in the house." Speaking of hunting, you also know my archery, and being able to draw a bow is a great thing. ”

Yuan Tan smiled: "You can train an elite soldier in Youzhou, can't you even practice archery?" When my father was as old as you, he had already worn a hundred steps, I remember when I was a child, I followed my father out hunting, the children of the Luoyang family, in terms of archery, only Bao Xin of Taishan County was better than my father. ”

Yuan Xi was stunned and said, "Elite soldiers? ”

Yuan Tan said: "I have heard Zongbao say that on the banks of the Yingshui River, your 500 people killed 3,000 of my people. ”

Yuan Xi scratched his head, it turned out that he was looking for trouble. In fact, there are only about 100 people in a company, where there are 500 people, it is obvious that Zong Bao deliberately exaggerated his combat effectiveness in order to find himself under the stairs. However, even if 500 people killed 3,000 people, Yuan Xi didn't feel where the elite was. The soldiers under the eldest brother Yuan Tan were not beaten at all. If this is also considered elite, it is now necessary to unify the entire territory of Qingzhou. Cao Cao sent Zhang Liao and Zang Ba to restrain him from two directions, one north and one south, so that he could only shrink in Linzi.

But he still had to be modest on the face, so he said: "It's just a misunderstanding, if it's a confrontation on the battlefield, the momentum of victory or defeat, you have to say two." ”

The hounds scattered, and immediately the rabbits were driven out of the grass. Yuan Tan shot an arrow, and the rabbit turned around and fled, and the arrow hit the ground and disappeared.

Yuan Tan didn't care, turned his head to Yuan Xi and said, "It's still the second one, you have trained well, and this can't be separated." It's just that such an elite army, placed in the rear of Youzhou, is indeed wasted. ”

Yuan Xi thought to himself: Naturally, it will not be placed in the rear, and it will come in handy if the official crossing fights immediately. However, Yuan Shao's side, he still has to say hello, otherwise how can he lead his troops to the battlefield as the assassin of Youzhou at that time? Why don't you let the eldest brother talk about it first? Since Yuan Tan has seen how good his people's army is, it is only natural for him to take the initiative to make suggestions.

However, unexpectedly, Yuan Tan actually said next: "My Qingzhou is where heroes come in, not only have you ever thought about letting this group of soldiers and horses be seconded to Qingzhou?" Don't worry, just stay in Linzi to exterminate the remnants of the Yellow Turban, and when the time comes, you will have merit in quelling the chaos, and you can report it according to your merits. What do you think? ”

Yuan Xi smiled, thinking that this big brother's little abacus is not bad. It seems that the situation in Qingzhou is really not optimistic, otherwise he would not be able to tear off his face and beg for help if he is as arrogant as he is.

Do you want to agree to him, Yuan Xi himself hesitated, before the Guandu War, whether to find something to do for the people's army and sharpen the knife, this matter has advantages and disadvantages. Yuan Xi couldn't think it through for a while. In the case of not being able to guarantee logistics, he sent troops to the war remotely, and accidentally pitted this group of people.

Yuan Tan saw that he didn't speak, so he said, "Second brother, you think about it slowly, I hope that the next time I see you, you can make a decision." ”

As he spoke, Yuan Tan patted his horse and chased after his prey.

There was not much to gain from hunting, so Yuan Xi said goodbye to Yuan Tan and went back on his own. Yuan Tan was still interested, so he asked two of his followers to send Yuan Xi back to the city. Three people and three horses, trotting all the way, through the woods, the city wall of Yecheng is in sight.

In the distance, the city towered, and the whole city sat on the plain like a giant. The wind around was a little quiet at this time, there was no one on the path, everything was quiet, and only the sound of horses' hooves was in my ears.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound, and a strong man appeared in everyone's field of vision. The big black man was shirtless, carrying a chain at one end of which was connected to a huge hammer.

"Whew...... Drink—"

originally thought it was just a passerby, but the other party came to the road that the three of them must have passed. This made the two entourages sent by Yuan Tan immediately nervous.

"Second son, be careful! Backwards! ”

One of the attendants grabbed the horse's belly, rushed forward abruptly, and shouted at the big black man, "Who is coming?" ”

The big black man took two steps, did not speak, but with the strength of his hands, the iron chain stretched out, and then there was a sound of breaking wind, and the black and large iron hammer struck down towards the end.

Yuan Xi's eyes were about to split, and he saw that the entire line of sight turned into a pool of bright red.

The attendant snorted, and even the men and horses were smashed to the ground with a hammer, and their heads were already open. Even the hammer struck his mount, and the huge horse was finished.

The other attendant was also unexpected, and the mount was still moving forward, but it was too late to retract.

The hammer at one end of the chain cut through a beautiful arc and struck him. Like the man before, it's a one-shot deal.

At this time, Yuan Xi took a breath of cold air, tasting the huge malice of the opponent looking at him coldly. He hurriedly turned the horse's head, but his fingers trembled violently.

All of them, the big man strode like the wind and rushed towards him. And in another direction, it takes a long time.

The distance between the two was rapidly approaching.

Ten meters, five meters......

You can almost smell the blood.

You can almost hear the sound of the hammer breaking through the wind and the friction between the chains.

The mount under the ass had just turned around and was about to start accelerating, but the other party was already in front of him. Yuan Xi nervously even looked at himself and dismounted on foot.

"Drink—" the big man yelled.

Then there was a thud, and something fell to the ground.

The cold murderous aura seemed to recede like a tide.

It's over?

Yuan Xi was covered in cold sweat, and when he glanced back, the big man actually fell to the ground.

Only then did I hear someone approaching nearby.

"Second son!"

Yuan Xi turned his head, it was the pitch-black "Special Sila", and Zhao Yun in white armor.

Yuan Xi hurriedly pulled the reins.

"Didn't you go to Liu Bei?"

"Yes, I'm going to say goodbye to Lord Xuande."

"Oh?!"
